Cypher tries to solve problems closer to storage.

GraphQL was designed to add types and remote data fetching abstractions to a large existing PHP server side code base. Cypher is designed to work closer to storage, although there are many implementations that run cypher on top of anything ("table functions" in ladybug).

Neo4j's implementation of cypher didn't emphasize types. You had a relatively schemaless design that made it easy to get started. But Kuzu/Ladybug implementation of cypher is closer to DuckDB SQL.

They both have their places in computing as long as we have terminology that's clear and unambiguous.

Look at the number of comments in this story that refer to GraphQL as GQL (which is a ISO standard).

add Goldratt the author.

"The Goal" is a movie based on Eliyahu Goldratt's best-selling business novel that teaches the principles of the Theory of Constraints

"he fact that someone can pull up an example where a union caused a business to go under doesn't make me think "we should eliminate unions""

It seems here it does.

For years every time a company fails that also happened to have a union, the union gets blamed. Never mind the management decision.

It's just a common flame bait for some groups to hate unions. That group doesn't actually reasonably think out these things.

It's like 'woke', the word 'union' is a key word that some groups use to label others for hate. They aren't sitting back and making an economic argument.

The threshold does exist. Doesn't the poverty line take into account local conditions for median food/rent prices?

So minimum wage should be enough to be above poverty line.

This would solve cases like walmart employees being in poverty and needing government assistance to live.

There are movie flops, yet also there is an actors union. Workers are allowed to be paid even if management makes bad decisions. The company can go bankrupt, doesn't mean workers shouldn't get paid.

Are being wages owed here? If so, the company either can't pay them, and should be considered bankrupt, or is unlawfully holding them back, in which case they should be sued.

But is this actually the case here?

The parent was implying a common argument that a union will drive a company out of business. I'm saying, if there are poor decisions that drive a company out of business, then employees should still be paid. It doesn't make sense that employees should prop up the company by taking a pay cut.

Aren't less movies now being made in hollywood? Seems

I'm in an area where Netflix and other production companies are building massive studios.

When they're up and running, workers will still be unionized under the same SAG-AFTRA as workers in Hollywood are.

How much of this is just because the market as a whole is going up.

This same kind of mentality happened pre-2008. People thought they were great at being day-traders, and had all kinds of algorithms that were 'beating the market'.

But it was just that the entire market was going up. They weren't doing anything special.

Once the market turned downward, that was when it took talent to stay even.

   Show me these things beating a downward market.

and Warner Brothers owns HBO? So potentially, could we get all HBO shows on Netflix?

Well then that's everything.
